Chapter 678: Suffocating Battle (2)

"Uu, this is bad. I don\'t know much magic that can inflict physical damage. Can I just act as support anymore?" The white-gold female mage muttered softly while watching the battle in the anti-curse zones.

"Your father will be furious if you come to the front, Princess Evelyn. Even though you are equipped with a top-tier mage suit, you do not yet have sufficient combat power for the real war. Moreover, you are still lacking experience. happened to you, and because of that, please stay on the line of support." A female mage with long ash hair reminded Evelyn as she cast her reinforcement and enhancement to the troops on the front line.

"Uu, you don\'t have to say it so clearly, Freya. I knew about it..." Evelyn pouted and cast her support-type magic on the defensive troops.

She knew it more than anyone. Even though she was wearing her divine battlesuit, she was still an Apprentice-class mage. She could match a top-tier mage, but there was a limit due to many factors.

"Hereditary technique. Holy light, golden rose garden! Bloom!" The golden armored holy knight plunged his greatsword into the ground.

Dozens of gigantic golden roses popped out of the ground. They instantly exploded and inflicted a deadly shockwave on the monsters around him.

"Hmph!" The holy knight General snorted and swung his golden greatsword to cut down the monsters surrounding him.

He was already a mighty Saint-level holy knight. He felt that he could wipe out all the monsters in this area by himself because he had received several magic buffs.

However, the monsters kept popping up as if they were endless, and the defense forces were starting to show signs of exhaustion.

"It\'s endless. Joseph! When will the reinforcements arrive? The sealed area here seems to be at danger level five." The holy knight General jumped back and shouted at his comrade.

"We can\'t tell when the reinforcements will arrive, General Patrick! All we can do now is defend and strike back!" Joseph swung his longsword horizontally and split the monster about to pounce on him in two. The monster instantly turned into black mist and was absorbed into the anti-curse mechanism staff.

"Is it like that? If so, I\'m afraid that hundreds of monsters will manage to escape from this battle." Patrick sighed and looked at the hordes of monsters around him using his bird view.

They were just a regiment while their opponents continued to grow. Those monsters had already doubled the total number of defense forces. The monsters kept popping out from the ground. It was as if an unimaginable monster\'s lair was buried down there.

*Boom!* *Boom!*

"Argh!!!"

"Caesar!"

"Marco!"

Several screams could be heard from various sides of the battlefield. The tension suddenly became suffocating, and the weather grew darker.

Three giant undead popped out right under the defense troops. Some of the poor knights were torn apart and devoured by the giant undead.

"Roar!" The three giant undead bared their sharp fangs with a deafening roar.

"Oh, by the name of heavens... Three Saint-level cursed monsters at once?" Patrick muttered under his breath. he immediately took a breath. He rushed to deal with one of the three most significant threats to the defense forces. "Avoid direct clashes with that giant undead if you are below Saint-level!"

"Back into the anti-curse zone, you filthy creatures!" Patrick dashed out of the anti-curse zone and slashed at the weak accursed creatures with the wide part of his greatsword.

*Swoosh!*

"Roar!" The ghoul-like accursed creatures bounced towards a giant undead.

"Grr!" The giant undead knocked down the creatures that flew toward him. He stared at the mighty golden knight with his blazing green eyes with a tinge of interest.

"Fwr,oud?" The giant undead rushed towards its target. He got rid of everything that blocked his path with his big clawed hands.

"Yeah, come to me, you filthy creature!" Patrick ran towards the giant monster with a solemn expression on his face.

*Boom!*

A clash between two Saint-level powerhouses culminated in the middle of the battlefield.

"Oh no, this is bad, Freya. Our defense force only has two Saint-level experts. Sir Patrick is already engaged in battle. The other two giant monsters are only handled by a few Spirit-level holy knights." Evelyn paled slightly as she watched the battle zone suddenly become unfavorable.

"I\'m afraid this isn\'t the worst, Princess Evelyn. I\'ll be assisting the defensive forces in the vanguard. You stay here and make sure to only engage in long-range combat. All of you, protect Princess Evelyn well." Freya frowned. She gave her orders to her subordinates and flew into the battlefield in the anti-curse zone.

"Yes, ma\'am! Princess Evelyn, the rear troops need to retreat a few dozen meters from the battle zone to ensure we have room for long-range supportive magic." A mage pointed his palm to the side. The rear troops were starting to take their distance from the battle zone.

"All right." Evelyn just nodded in agreement. She never expected that her involvement in the second battle against accursed creatures would be confronted by three Saint-level monsters that popped out at once.

Not to mention, the situation was still tense, as if that giant gorilla-like undead were not the worst to come.

*Rumble* *Rumble*

A big earthquake occurred all of a sudden. The atmosphere instantly became suffocating. Even breathing became difficult. So many fighters lost their balance because of that.

The ground cracked, and it spread in all directions. Something enormous was about to break free from the shackles beneath the ground.

A mass of soil then swelled up and formed a small hill. However, the ground suddenly burst open, and a pillar of black fire soared through the black clouds in the sky.

"Roar!" A roar that shook the ground and soul echoed from the giant fire hole that had just been created.

"Tch." Patrick abandoned his opponent and ran as fast as he could to catch the silver staff blown up into the sky. No matter how bad the enemy, the anti-curse mechanism staff was crucial to determining this battlefield\'s outcome.

"Freya, secure the anti-curse staff near you!" Patrick exclaimed after he caught his objective.

"Oh, by the name of the Goddess of Blessings... What is that?" Freya muttered with slight goosebumps in mid-air. She could see what was at the bottom of the black hellfire pit. It was an extremely powerful gigantic skeleton dragon!

*Swoosh!*

The gigantic skeleton dragon flew into the sky and caught the silver staff in mid-air with its fangs. The anti-curse mechanism staff was simply destroyed, regardless of that staff\'s side effect.

"Grr!" The giant undead jumped high into the air and knocked Patrick back down to the ground.

"Guh!" Patrick was caught off guard by the appearance of a gigantic skeleton dragon. He tried to land perfectly and activate the anti-curse mechanism back to the ground.

"One zone has been destroyed, and now an Emperor-level gigantic accursed monster? I hope the Goddess of Blessings will assist us here soon. My Goddess and holy light, please lend us your power to eradicate these monsters." Patrick held his greatsword with both hands and prepared to use an ultimate attack.

Magic was not effective against accursed creatures, but he was not at his wits end to deal with their situation. His greatsword clad in bright golden light lit up the dark battlefield.

"Back to the ground. Holy Almighty Pull!" Patrick slashed through the empty air. A yellow crescent moon shot towards the gigantic dragon in the sky.

However, it immediately stopped mid-air and became a reverse vortex that sucked whatever was above downwards.

"Roar!" The skeleton dragon flapped its wings and flew high.

"Damn it, it\'s much stronger than me. At this rate, that skeleton dragon will bring disaster." Patrick clicked his tongue in annoyance. Yet, the giant undead came back to attack him. "You again!?"

The situation on the battlefield became increasingly gloomy and tense. The casualties continued to fall since the simultaneous appearance of three Saint-level accursed creatures. And now, things were made worse with an Emperor-level calamity beast.

Evelyn\'s expression paled, and she could only clasp her hands together. She felt that she wasted her best friend\'s gift because she was weak. She had a divine mage battlesuit, but she couldn\'t do much.

The magic that she cast for the knights earlier had drained her energy even though she had been supported by her battlesuit.

At that moment, all the accursed creatures suddenly stopped attacking. They looked up as if waiting for something from behind the black cloud.

"What\'s going on?" That was a question that popped up in almost everyone\'s mind.

However, the answer to that question immediately came when the black cloud was suddenly cleared out, and a large hole appeared in the middle of the dark sky.

A reddish-black light shone brightly like a disastrous eclipse amidst the red sky. The air temperature increased rapidly, and the oxygen dissipated gradually. The pressure of the skeleton dragon\'s aura seemed to squeeze everyone from within.

The battlefield became suffocating and stifling. The human defense forces barely could move due to an unknown pressure. They soon wholly found it hard to breathe due to the absence of oxygen.

Evelyn opened her mouth, but no sound came out. She looked up and held her mage staff with both hands. \'Everyone will die at this rate...\'

She knew a deadly attack would fall upon them, and she would try to protect everyone with everything she had. Even though her life force would be drained to empower her divine staff for casting magic of that class.

*Swoosh!*

A massive reddish-black fire breath shot toward the earth like a beam of judgment. The accursed creatures and human defense troops could only look up to see their doom.
